Land east of Hookhams Lane, Salph End, Renhold

Map 1233

Agriculture

Site adjoins a live application to the west for 28 dwellings (19/02194/MAO). To the north are residential properties fronting Hookham Lane. To the south is Crossways Nursing Home and to the east is a strong tree belt with agricultural fields beyond. The Location Plan provides the boundary of the site that is being promoted by Gladman. However, a Concept Plan also accompanies the submission demonstrating how the site functions along side the live planning application to the west.

The proposals will accord with the Council’s Local Plan climate change policies. Gladman welcomes a meeting with the Council to discuss the Council’s policy climate change policies and how the scheme can be shaped to meet those targets. An initial concept plan has been provided as part of this Call for Sites Consultation. This is indicative at this stage but can used as basis for early discussions on the design of the proposals, including climate change objectives.

x The proposal has the potential to cause harm to heritage assets. This harm may range from low to high. There may be options to avoid, reduce or mitigate this harm and where sites have not been ruled out altogether for other reasons, further assessment will be undertaken to more fully explore impacts on significance and options for harm reduction and mitigation. This further assessment may ultimately lead to the conclusion that the site should not be allocated.

x Serious access constraint wider impacts

? Potential capacity problem requiring mitigation

Access is dependant on a live application to the west (19/02194/MAO) on Hookhams Lane requiring demolition of an existing residential property (see site 680 below); however a search of the Bedford planning portal indicates that this was refused in Oct 2020. There is moderate congestion in the area during peak times, which this development would contribute to. The closest bus stop is 450m North on Hookhams Lane, with bus line 27, which offers a service of 1 bus per hour. A shared cycle route is just 160m south of the site entrance. Access does not currently appear possible given the rejection of planning permission for demolition of the existing property to the west. Footway would require widening and improving to meet required standards. Connection should be provided to shared cycle path to the south of the site.

Development at the land off Hall End Road will provide a sustainable location for housing within short walking distance of local amenities and facilities. In addition, the sites connectivity and access to public transport networks will help to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions created from development at the site. Furthermore, development at the site would provide EV charging points to encourage the use of electric vehicles further mitigating the development against greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, the site will deliver significant increases in the green infrastructure through additional planting and the creation of a green corridor to deliver a net biodiversity gain and enhance the natural environment.

? Potential capacity problem requiring mitigation

The site would access Hall End Road, which is an adopted and unclassified road with a footway on the east side and verge on the opposite side. The development proposes 90 residential properties on the site, thus likely to generate significant enough traffic to cause additional congestion on Hall End Road. The closest bus stop is less than 400m away, past Wootton Upper School, serving bus lines 53A, 68 and C5, at a once per 1-2 hours frequency, with more regular services from 750m away on Cause End Rd. The footway outside the site is on the opposite side of Hall End Road and is fairly narrow. Hall End Road is a quite, bicycle-friendly road, however there is no designated cycle route in the vicinity. Pedestrian crossing would be needed to allow access to the footpath, which may also require widening. Designated cycle lane might be required as well. A Transport Assessment would be required to understand the impact on the local highway network as together with the other nearby sites in the vicinity, significant traffic generation can be expected.
